Although all these suggestions have been very helpful, they've all addressed the issue of working out a suitable timetable, (including the John Scalzi article that was referenced). But that actually wasn't my question. I've realised that my time is limited, and I've done what I can to identify periods when I can write. What I'm interested in however is how other people go about invoking a sense of motivation before they write - what gets their creative juices flowing?
I've got my own methods, (including browsing this highly insightful forum), however I was interested in what other people do. I'm all ready to rock 'n roll in a writing sense when I'm at my day job. i.e. when I can NOT actually write. Fine, it's frustrating but I can live that. I can live with the fact that I will be writing when I get home from work when I'm googly-eyed with fatigue. I will not try and whinge about it too much, (except to Biggles, whose patience and understanding is boundless so long as I keep his underwater castle clean).
I'd just like to feel a little more like writing when the time presents itself.
